Chip Leaders Tangle

Thom Werthmann
Thom Werthmann
We caught up to this hand on the flop. The board showed {K-Clubs} {10-Spades} {3-Hearts} and Thom Werthmann and David Woo were heads up.

Werthmann bet 30,000 and Woo raised to 60,000. Werthmann came back over the top and made it 160,000 to go. Woo pushed out 400,000 and Werthmann responded by moving all in for just over 950,000 in chips.

Woo thought forever and at one point said, "You've got aces beat?" He eventually folded and Werthmann picked up the pot. He is now the clear chip leader with about 1,380,000 while Woo is down to just 470,000.
